Anleitung Zusammenfassung
• Only an authorized fire equipment dealer must refill this extinguisher. The extinguisher must be refilled with the same chemical that it contained when it was first purchased. Improper filling can result in non-working or dangerous units. 1. Inspect the extinguisher once a week. Remove the extinguisher from the mounting device and inspect the gauge. If the gauge pointer is anywhere in the green band, the extinguisher is properly charged and ready to use. If the gauge reads "RECHARGE," the extinguisher has lost pressure and must be refilled. 2. Check for signs of damage or misuse. Make sure you can still read all the text on the label. Carefully examine the surface of the extinguisher for corrosion. You can help prevent corrosion by cleaning the extinguisher if it gets wet or dirty. If you notice corrosion during the warranty period, return the unit to First Alert® (see "Limited Warranty" at the end of this manual). 3. Make sure the tamper indicator ("safety seal") is still intact and the nozzle is clean and unobstructed. Continued... 2 CHECKING AND INSPECTING THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER, Continued 4. Record all inspection and maintenance dates on the tag included with the fire extinguisher. 5. When you finish inspecting the fire extinguisher, always put it back onto the mounting device. Make sure the safety seal is intact. For more information about fire extinguishers, consult the NFPA Standard #10, "Portable Fire Extinguishers," available from the National Fire Protection Association, Inc., Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169, USA. HOW TO OPERATE YOUR FIRE EXTINGUISHER IN A FIRE EMERGENCY • Make sure your extinguisher may be safely and effectively used on the small fire you want to fight. Always use extreme caution when fighting any fire. Fight a fire only where there is a clear escape path to allow you to get out safely if the fire gets worse. • Avoid breathing smoke and heated fumes; stay low if necessary. Burning materials will release toxic fumes. Inhaling these fumes may cause injury or death. • Always stand back far enough away from the fire—near an exit—and make sure nothing is between you and your escape route. If you get too close to a fire, you risk getting burned or hit by splattering material like grease. If the fire is too hot or smoky for you to get within 10 feet (3 meters), DO NOT try to fight the fire yourself. Evacuate immediately and call the Fire Department. Stand back no less than 10 feet (3 meters) from the fire. • For fires on a kitchen stove, turn oven or burners off immediately if possible. If you can’t reach the oven or burner controls safely, extinguish the fire first, then turn them off. • Fight the fire from an upwind direction with your back to any strong air current. Trying to fight a fire with currents blowing towards you can result in serious injury. TO FIGHT THE FIRE This unit will not operate when it is on the mounting device. The extinguisher must be removed from the mounting device or it cannot discharge its contents to fight a fire. Break Seal Aim Nozzle at Press Lever To and Pull Out Base of Fire Discharge Powder the Safety Pin 1. Lift the extinguisher off the mounting device and remove nozzle from the holding strap. If your fire extinguisher came with a metal bracket, unbuckle the metal strap to remove the extinguisher from the mounting device. 2. Hold the unit firmly in an upright position. Pull out the safety pin to break the safety seal or tamper indicator. Make sure the extinguisher nozzle faces away from you. 3. Stand back from the fire at least 10 feet (3 meters), and make sure the fire is not between you and your exit. 4. Hold the extinguisher upright and aim the nozzle at the base of the fire. 5. Press the lever to discharge the powder. 6. Sweep the spray at the base of the burning material, using quick side-to-side motions. (If the spray scatters the fire, move back.) 7. Move slowly towards the fire as the extinguisher spray pushes the fire back. Maintain a 10-foot (3 meter) distance between you and the front of the fire at all times. 8. Completely discharge the contents of the extinguisher and make sure the fire is completely out. Flashbacks are common with fires. 9. For kitchen fires on a kitchen stove, turn off the stove immediately if possible, otherwise as soon as it is safe. 10. If you suspect a fire had an electrical origin, shut off the electrical power, if possible, without eliminating your escape route. Do not touch electrical wires or appliances. 11. After you have completely discharged your extinguisher, leave the building and close all the doors behind you. AFTER THE FIRE IS EXTINGUISHED Do not turn the electrical power back on or plug in any appliances until the area has been cleaned up completely. It is very important to remove the powder from electrical equipment after a fire. If the powder gets wet, it can conduct electricity. (Using a dry chemical extinguisher on wet electrical equipment may be hazardous for this reason.) This may worsen an ele...
